Gee Whiz, Crewcab....
That junkyard is something to behold.
Us folks from the left-coast might charter a bus and go on a roadie with our tool purses.
Here are a couple of pic's of what I did to cover up the wagon-wheel rims that my tires were on....that I didn't like.
I think these are '73 & '74 caps.....with a few hrs of masking and a can of white paint.
(and a day of engineering the attaching hardware)

Before....that I didn't like too much.
And then after...

Hey Driller, do you have the old wheels? I might know a buyer

68 IRON · 06-14-2011, 04:16 PM

If name dropping is wrong...can you link a google maps image of the place?
No names needed.....just a clue!

Makes me sad to see a "junk yard" with all those trucks just dumped there when they could be out on our streets/roads.

What makes me sad is looking at the license plate tabs on some of these and when they were last on the roads. The ocre and white truck in the foreground of the third picture was last licensed in 2009...within a year and a half it has gone from driving to stripped and laying on it axles. It's a shame.

I'm making a road trip and going shopping this weekend.

05crewcab, do you remember if there were any 67 bench seats? I need one and will be in the cities this coming weekend/week.

I don't recall specifically, sorry. You could call them. ...It's French Lake Auto

What junk yard is that ? I live in Red wing MN and Might be in the need of a new cab if the price is right.

A.T. RockDriller · 06-18-2011, 01:46 PM

68 Iron..

My truck had aftermarket steelies on it when I got it.
I have no clue what happened to the originals.
